I'd recommend Hähnel - http://hahnel.ie/. The charger TC-Max 2 is on
the (very!) slow side (12 hours+), better get the faster (~3 hours)
PowerStation HSC-104. Both will charge your GP batteries as well -
keep them as a spare set as you will need them some time.
If your current charger is either "smart" or "fast" you should just
stick with it and get the extra set or two of batteries.
If you're not upgrading the charger, the 2000 or 2350mAh batteries
will take longer than your 1800's to charge, but also last longer.
